So when your governor gets a federal indictment on corruption charges for some really egregious situations that apparently your state law doesn't cover, what do you do? Virginia working on hilarious new ethics law looks at Washington Post: Va. ‘ethics reform’ is riddled with loopholes and softens a penalty for lying in disclosures, and how it downgrades assorted violations from felonies to misdemeanors.
Yay for politicians stepping up and making the tough decisions...
